The alternative fuel types to be addressed under this FOA are specified by the Energy Policy Act of 1992 and are: Methanol, ethanol, and other alcohols. Blends of 85% or more of alcohol with gasoline. Fuels (other than alcohol) derived from biological materials (including pure biodiesel (B100)). The US Department of Energy (DOE) will award up to $4.5 MORE

Given equivalent deployment of butanols and ethanol, the results suggest emissions of unburned alcohols would decrease, but carbonyl emissions would increase; some of these compounds have poorly understood health effects, they note. MORE

ExxonMobil Research and Engineering Company has filed a US patent application (# 20100326387 , published 30 December 2010) on methods using a wide range of fuel-alcoholblends to expand the operating envelope of engines operating in advanced combustion modes. biodiesel), a renewable diesel, a Fischer-Tropsch-derived fuel, a gasoline-diesel blend, a naphtha, other fuels derived from petroleum or non-petroleum feed stocks, and any combination or blend.

In the new paper, the research team blended six test fuels with different aromatics, olefin, sulfur, Methyl-cyclopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl (MMT) and ethanol content to use with a GDI engine (certified to China Phase 4, equivalent to Euro 4) produced by a Chinese OEM to examine the influences on primary particulate emission including mass; number; size distribution; compounds including Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs); and the toxicity of PAHs emissions.

Vulcanol is fuel-grade methanol, a clean burning, high-octane fuel that can be blended with gasoline for automobiles and used in the production of biodiesel or fuel ethers (DME, MTBE, OME etc.). Because of China’s coal reserves, the country has viewed methanol as a viable alternative for gasoline; methanol and methanol-blended gasoline are used in more than 20 provinces. Zhejiang Geely Holding Group (Geely Group) will invest a total of US$45.5 MORE

The growth in hydrous ethanol, which uses a blend of 94-95% ethanol to 5-6% water, rapidly increased during the 1980s, with consumption peaking in 1989. Although it previously used a hydrous ethanol blend, Brazil shifted toward the aforementioned anhydrous ethanol, which is used in a ratio of ethanol to gasoline of 20-24:80-76. Named flex-fuel vehicles (FFVs), these automobiles run on gasoline, ethanol, or any blend of the two. by Brian J. Donovan, CEO Renergie, Inc. MORE

A study by engineers from Mahle Powertrain Ltd and BP found strong synergy between spark ignition (SI) engine downsizing and fuel containing low-to-moderate amounts of alcohol, including ethanol and butanol. When alcohol was added to the blend, fuel consumption over the drive cycle increased in direct proportion to the reduction in calorific value of the fuel. The addition of alcohol did not improve excess air tolerance. MORE

RVPs (predicted DVPE) of single- and dual-alcoholblends in gasoline with different relative proportions of ethanol and 1-butanol. Among the findings of the study: The RVP of the base gasoline was higher than that of the C 1 -C 4 alcohols. MORE
